MUŻA will hold a public workshop titled 'Collection in Focus: Prints' on 14 August 2026, offering participants a close look at a selection of prints from the National Collection. The session is scheduled from 10am to 12pm at MUŻA, Malta, and is described as an invitation to explore the “rich and varied world of printmaking.”
According to Heritage Malta’s event listing and newsletter notice, the workshop will combine guided discussion with practical insight. The programme is set to introduce key printmaking techniques including etching, engraving, lithography and woodcut, and to show how these processes have been used by artists across centuries. The event is not a seated workshop: attendees will move around the displayed artworks, although chairs will be available if needed.
The workshop sits within Heritage Malta’s wider museum and events programme, which the organisation says includes exhibitions and other activities across its museums and sites. The listing for 'Collection in Focus: Prints' identifies MUŻA as the venue and the National Collection as the source of the works being discussed, placing the workshop within the museum’s curatorial and educational presentation of its holdings.
The workshop’s subject makes printmaking the central focus rather than a single artist or exhibition. Heritage Malta describes printmaking as important to the history of art for its role in the dissemination of ideas, artistic experimentation and the accessibility of images. The session is intended to give participants a deeper appreciation of prints as both technical achievements and artistic expressions.
The event page lists tickets with a price range of €0.00 through €10.00, with options including adult, senior, student and member categories. The newsletter version notes that booking is available through Heritage Malta’s website. The public notice also points readers to the museum’s standard channels and says the workshop is open to subscribers through the Heritage Malta newsletter.
Heritage Malta’s online listing places the workshop at MUŻA on 14 August 2026 from 10am to 12pm, with the museum’s National Collection forming the basis of the presentation. The event’s practical format, focused on close viewing and discussion, is outlined as part of a guided encounter with prints and the techniques behind them.
